The Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R is among the most impressive litre-class machines that you can buy in India. It has the style, the power and the electronic goodies to make it a complete package. The updated version of the Ninja ZX-10R was launched in February last year and now the Japanese two-wheeler giant has a surprise in store for Indian bikers. Kawasaki will launch the Ninja ZX-10RR in India on March 11, 2017. We expect the new motorcycle to be priced around Rs 20 lakh, ex-showroom. The new Ninja ZX-10RR was launched at the 2016 INTERMOT motorcycle show and is a limited edition offering. Production of the bike has been limited to just 500 units and it comes in a special Winter Edition matte black paint to set it apart from the standard motorcycle.

Additional features on the Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10RR includes Kawasaki’s KQS quick-shifter that allows both clutchless upshifts and downshifts. The wheels are seven-spoke forged aluminium units sourced from Marchesini and they are wrapped around with the super sticky Pirelli Diablo Supercorsa SP tyres. The tappets have been carbon coated and the crankcase is more rigid. Kawasaki also offers race kit parts as an accessory whether that will be offered in India remains skeptical. The race kit also gets high-lift camshafts (0.7mm more valve lift than the standard ZX-10R) and the cylinder head has been modified for clearance. The connecting coolant passage between the cylinders have also been narrowed down to accommodate race kit pistons to withstand the stresses of higher-rpm engine speeds. Kawasaki claims that Ninja ZX-10RR was approximately 2 seconds faster than the standard motorcycle at its Autopolis test track in Kumamoto, Japan.

Powering the bike is a liquid-cooled, 998cc inline four unit which pumps out at 200PS, and gets a 10PS boost with ram air. It makes over 113Nm of torque at 11,500rpm and the motor has been mated to a 6-speed gearbox. The bike features Bosch inertial measurement unit (IMU) that measures data across 6 axes of movement. The traction control system also gets five modes and there’s a three-mode launch control too, along with ABS. The main purpose of the new motorcycle is for Kawasaki to meet the superbike racing homologation requirements.
